Frankfurter and His Mommy

Gunner James

I am Angela Walters. Hello and welcome to my blog! I am a Christian, card making, wiener dog loving lady. I started this blog in 2009 to share the cards I have made and my wonderful wiener dog, Frankfurter, with all of you. Although my dear Frank passed away in May of 2017, this blog continues as a way to honor him and all of the joy he brought into the world!

In September of 2017, I adopted another wiener dog, Gunner James. Gunner is not a replacement for Frank because no one could ever replace my amazing Frankfurter. Instead, my heart simply grew as I fell in love with another sweet Dachshund. I am thankful and blessed to have another sweet boy to share with all of you, along with my cards, on this blog.

My life will always be better because of the time I spent with my wiener dog, Frankfurter Walters. I was blessed to be his Mommy from June 30, 2001 until he passed away on May 21, 20017. He will forever be loved and missed.

VC Rocks Blog Hop- Have a Heart with Twitterpated

You can begin our blog hop by clicking here. If you've been following the hop, you probably came from Elizabeth Harris' blog, Love 2 Stamp.

For my stop on the hop, I wanted to use the perfect paper for hearts, "Twitterpated." It's so sweet and romantic! I used the Hearts Collection Framelits to cut a heart out of my Riding Hood Red Cardstock. Then, I used a variety of Twitterpated papers to fill in my heart, giving it a bit of a quilted look. I finished my card by adding more Twitterpated Blushing Bride paper for my background and Blushing Bride 1/2" Stitched-Poly Ribbon in a bow on the side. The silver brads give the card a little more depth and texture. I decided my card needed a little more to it, so I added "stitching" with a white gel pen around the outside of the heart. This adds to the quilted look. Ironically, there is no stamping on my Stampin' Up card. With all the great matching products, I didn't add anything stamped this time. This is very unusual for me but I'm pleased with how my card turned out!

I hope you've enjoyed my card and will continue on the rest of our blog hop!
